FEATURED WEB SITE: NATIONAL PARK MEDALS
Roger deWardt Lane writes: "At the flea market this past Tuesday, I
purchased a medal from a German dealer. How it got from the U.S. Virgin
Islands to Germany and back to Florida is a mystery. The producer was
Medallic Art Co. My cost was $3.00 and at our local Hollywood coin
club I will use it for 'show & tell'. More Internet research found
the Lawrence Rockefeller story of how he donated land for the Virgin
Isle National Park. It's a government commercial site, but most
interesting."
[There are some very interesting medals shown here, but I've never
viewed any of these in person. Are any of our readers familiar with
this series? After reviewing the web site, I don't believe it's
actually affiliated with the government - the site is owned and run
by Medallic Art Company itself. -Editor]
